Half a year ago I had contact with Caseking regarding this case, but at that time it was simply not yet available in Germany. Until then, I was allowed to test the N1 extensively. The problem with the availability of the N2 is now solved, so we can finally take a look at it today! Here you can read the review of the mentioned N1: Packaging and [...]

Many readers have already noticed that Arctic sells the popular (because cheap) P12 PWM PST (and not only this) in new revisions. In the meantime, the fan we tested today has reached revision 4 and that alone is reason enough to draw a real comparison. For this purpose, we measured both revision 1 and revision 4 again under the same conditions [...]
AMD today announced two new professional graphics cards, the Radeon Pro W7600 and Radeon Pro W7500. Both cards are based on the new RDNA 3 architecture and offer a range of features that make them suitable for a variety of professional applications. AMD thus rounds off the product family at the bottom. A Radeon W7700 has not yet been colped [...]
The king is dead, long live the king. Or the other way around: The findings of the last few months are finally taken seriously and the connector is modified, work is done on a new standardization and tests are carried out ad nauseam. The product is given a new name, although in the end it is only a further development that should have been [...]
Coffee fund was yesterday, today we have the pun fund. And to be honest, I’m exhausted. Not destroyed, but mentally and physically drained. When you compare the effort of the past seven days to what has been achieved and, above all, who has been reached and how, you just want to turn over and go back to sleep. Whether the card tested [...]
We are familiar with assisted living, which definitely has a deeper meaning. Assisted benchmarking, on the other hand, makes less sense. And I admit it, I was thoroughly pissed off after a few hand-picked noble influencers held hands with NVIDIA (and certainly against their better judgment) and delivered the ordered praise for a product that [...]
I didn’t really want to believe it at first, but after receiving feedback in the double digits, I combined what was pleasant for the customer with what was interesting for me. I analyze and repair the card at my risk, so that the buyer gets a working card back in any case and I am at least smarter in the end. The 30 Kelvin delta between GPU [...]
There are always challenges that the company has to overcome in connection with AGESA (AMD Generic Encapsulated Software Architecture). The exact causes of the problems with AGESA 1.0.7.0 are difficult to determine, but are believed to be due to a combination of faulty or inadequately tested code changes and insufficient communication between AMD [...]
The process with the destroyed Ryzen 7000X3D CPUs has of course already interested me and I didn’t want to just cover a news and that was it. So I took the damage picture from Reddit and put the back of the CPU in the right position first. We can see the destroyed Ryzen 7 and the dent along with the scorched copper pads in the picture. The [...]
The Palit GeForce RTX 4070 Dual 12GB in review is one of the cheaper GeForce RTX 4070s that are already sold well below the MSRP. So good, so unspectacular. Especially since Gainward’s “sister card”, the RTX 4070 Ghost (same manufacturer, different label, different look) has already cracked the pychological 600 mark with 599 [...]
What do you do to raise awareness of a new product as a manufacturer? You simply split the launch of such a GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB and first release the cards that are also offered at the MSRP. So beautiful, so unexciting, because in the end all these cards are somehow the same. Except for one, because it is much more equal than the others. And [...]
RDNA3 has been on the market for quite some time and besides AMD’s reference cards, you usually only see reviews of the RX 7900XTX and usually only of the more expensive custom models. The RX 7900 XT currently plays a kind of shadowy existence, especially the somewhat cheaper models of the respective board partners. That was reason enough [...]
I’ve been testing the Maximus Z790 Hero motherboard from Asus for a while now and today I finally and officially have the review ready for you. In our baseline article about DDR5 RAM tests, the board was already mentioned very positively and has therefore established itself as the backbone for the test system. Not least the reliability and [...]
Technology website Hardware Times reports that a significant number of users have complained about slow boot times on their Ryzen 7000 systems, which are based on AMD’s new AM5 chipset for Zen 4. Even the technology website itself has experienced these delays. AMD has now released a new BIOS update (AGESA 1006) that significantly reduces [...]
First and foremost, a warning to everyone not to replicate this. You will inevitably cause irreparable damage to your valuable CPU. The current version of the MSI Center allows for voltage and clock increases for the X3D CPU. Unfortunately, for those who are fully committed to experimenting here, we have sacrificed a CPU for the sake of science [...]
